Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: NextStep at none against Tjime's shown. NextStep also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Tjime's advantage is ratings volume (52 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Tjime sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and NextStep sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
NextStep holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tjime has 52 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
